Here are the latest high-level updates on Digital Realty (ticker DLR) data centers, based on recent press and industry coverage:
- Digital Realty announced the final close of its U.S. hyperscale data center fund, totaling about $3.25 billion in equity commitments, with a 20% ownership stake in the fund. This fund targets hyperscale campuses in major U.S. metros and supports PlatformDIGITAL deployments. [Source coverage notes this development and its strategic implications for hyperscale growth]
- The company expanded its Europe-focused footprint by acquiring Telepoint and establishing a presence in Sofia, Bulgaria, adding two data centers with extensive interconnection services and cloud access. This move extends PlatformDIGITAL into Southeast Europe and strengthens regional connectivity to nearby markets.
- Digital Realty is extending its Digital Realty Innovation Lab (DRIL) network to new nodes in Asia-Pacific and Europe, with sites in Singapore, Tokyo/Japan (NRT12), and London announced for 2026. The labs aim to accelerate AI, hybrid cloud validation, and real-world deployment testing for customers.
Notes and context:
- Digital Realty regularly discloses financing, fundraising, and joint-venture activity related to hyperscale data centers, reflecting its strategy to fund and scale large-scale deployments via strategic capital partnerships.
- The Bulgaria expansion complements earlier European and Mediterranean footprint growth, enhancing interconnection reach and regional data-center density.
